Circa 1920’s or 30’s. This safety folder is a little higher quality than most others. Most have brass liners and this one has the nickel silver. Most you can see the pivot pin in the guard on both sides. This one has a hidden pin. The blade is very tight and the spring is strong. The guard that the blade sets in when it is closed, is loose. The blade still sits in it, but it is loose. No chips or cracks in the stag. Some small rust spots. The blade has a mirror polish finish.

How It Works
This is a consignment sales website. Folks send in knives to us, we clean them up, research them, photograph them, set a value, and sell them for you (handling all shipping, inquiries, returns, etc.)
A.G. Russell called our pricing a Dutch Auction. The price is set by our researcher, and then every month it is available it goes down in price by 10%.
Prices are reduced on the Wednesday closest to the 15th of the month. New knives are added usually twice a month.
